As the spread of coronavirus crisis continues to cause challenges across the world, sales of hand sanitiser have drastically increased, therefore leaving global shortages and crazy prices for a bottle!
The young people at our Wings School Cumbria have been preparing their own supplies during this time to ensure they can keep their hands clean. KS4 children have already studied topics linked to pathogens including the spread and control of pathogens as part of their combined science GCSE syllabus.
They have taken the next step to prepare their own ways to help prevent the spread of the disease by making their own sanitiser using isopropyl and aloe vera gel with lavender oil or lemon juice to make it make it smell nice!
What a great idea – well done!
